Forget random poster groupings — the best gallery walls have a thread running through them, and London's tube map already drew the lines for you.
The Northern Line Collection
The Northern line is London's longest, messiest, most split-personality tube line — and that's exactly why it makes the best poster set. You can build a collection that runs from Highgate through Camden Town and King's Cross, down through Leicester Square and Waterloo, all the way to Tooting Bec and Balham.
Pick three to five stations that tell your story. Lived in Balham, worked near Bank, nights out in Camden — that's a three-poster set that maps your actual London life. Hang them in a horizontal line and you've got a gallery wall with a narrative.
Our Camden Town poster — the beating heart of any Northern line collection.
The Victoria Line Collection
The Victoria line is short, fast, and hits some of London's most recognisable stations. Brixton to King's Cross via Vauxhall, Victoria, Oxford Circus, and Highbury — every stop is a different London mood.
The Victoria line set works brilliantly as a vertical arrangement on a narrow wall or staircase. Start with Brixton at the bottom and work up — south to north, just like the line itself.
Our Brixton poster — start your Victoria line collection at the southern terminus.
The Central Line Collection
The Central line cuts east-west through the middle of London like a red equator. Stratford through Bethnal Green, Liverpool Street, Bank, Oxford Circus, Bond Street, Marble Arch, and out to Notting Hill Gate and Ealing Broadway.
This is the diversity line. East London energy smashing into West London polish, with the City of London sitting awkwardly in the middle counting money. Three posters — one east, one central, one west — capture the full range.
How to Arrange Them
- 3 posters in a row: Use 16×24" for all three, spaced 5-8 cm apart. This is the classic gallery arrangement and works above sofas, beds, and console tables.
- Vertical stack: Use 8×12" framed, stacked vertically with 3-4 cm gaps. Perfect for hallways and staircases.
- Statement + companions: One 24×36" unframed in the centre, flanked by two 8×12" framed pieces. The big one is your home station, the small ones are meaningful stops along the line.
Pro Tip: Buying three or more posters? Mix sizes for visual interest — the eye moves naturally between different scales. And orders over £60 ship free to the UK, so a three-poster set almost always qualifies.
Do I need to match frame colours across a collection?
Matching frames give a clean, curated look. Mixing wood and black frames can work if there's another unifying element — like all being the same size or all from the same tube line. When in doubt, match.
Which tube line has the most poster options?
